Chapter 42: Qin Yu’s Metamorphosis

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

He stood in front of a broken mirror in a corner.

Jack Qin Xiong, who did not have much emotion on his face, put on the white-washed uniform.

Looking at himself in the mirror, Qin Xiong had the illusion that it was a lifetime ago.

More than a week ago, he was just a wild dog struggling in the mud. He used his teeth, claws, and his own body to carefully protect the peaceful times with his grandfather.

However, what flashed across his lowered eyes was Jiang Tao, who had been shot between the eyebrows. It was Chen Jianwen, who had stabbed himself in the chest during the chaos. It was the fight in the abandoned old building yesterday night.

Every day and night, as she listened to her grandfather’s increasingly violent coughs, her heart was filled with fear and helplessness!

He knew that his grandfather was trying his best to bear with the pain in his body. He had saved up all his money and wanted to save it for his university education…

Qin Xiong was terrified. He was terrified that his grandfather, who depended on him for survival, would one day leave him.

In the endless darkness, he reached out madly to grab something to control his fate…

He had prayed! He had even been willing to sell his soul to the devil!

“Whoosh!”

Immersing himself in the gray memory that felt like he was drowning, he gripped his fists tightly and panted heavily.

He gradually collected his thoughts, his eyes filled with gratitude towards his godfather!

Instead of watching his grandfather age step by step, enduring the pain and illness until his death, instead of living a numb life like a puppet…

Qin Xiong was more willing to fall into the darkness. At the very least, no matter how powerless he was, he had the power to resist fate!

Perhaps, deep down, he was a beast that suppressed madness…

Wearing his school uniform, he changed into his only pair of sneakers.

Qin Xiong prepared to leave. His eyes scanned the shabby room, and as if remembering something, he walked back to the small table to pick up his bag.

He pushed open the door and took a few steps out. He turned back to look at the shack that he and his grandfather had lived in for decades.

“Qin Xiong!”

Passing by an old residential area not far from the shed, the girl with a ponytail recognized Qin Xiong. Her voice rang like an oriole from afar.

The girl jogged over. When she poked her head around the corner, she saw an empty path.

In the corner of the shadows, Qin Xiong looked at the girl’s back and pursed his lips. This girl’s name was Xiao Yu, and she was his classmate. Initially, the two of them did not have much interaction, but after school, Xiao Yu was pestered by a gangster nearby and he took out a stick.

Xiao Yu was the only one in the class who had seen the other side of this average-looking student.

Since then, Xiao Yu would always bring Qin Xiong a lot of food and daily necessities.

To a certain extent, this ordinary girl was the only ray of light in Qin Xiong’s world.

In the past, he and Xiao Yu were existences from two different worlds.

Right now, he and Xiao Yu were parallel worlds!

Qin Xiong walked onto the bus and subconsciously sat at the back of the bus where he could see the entire bus.

It was close to noon, so there were not many passengers.

The bus shook. Qin Xiong leaned his head against the glass. He reached out to touch his stomach. Behind the bandage, there was another wave of pain. Blood was seeping out.

However, in order not to let his grandfather find out, he added a few more layers of bandages.

It was quite far away, so he took another turn.

They stopped in front of Yichuan nursing home.

For some reason, Qin Xiong felt nervous and guilty. That vicious person, who had killed Chen Family’s No. 3 and the Anqing Gang’s No. 4, suddenly felt uneasy and uneasy!

His grandfather’s greatest wish for him was to study and go to university.

He bought the most expensive fruit, but tore off the exquisite packaging and label of the fruit and placed it in a cheap red plastic bag.

He took a deep breath.

Qin Xiong walked into the sanatorium.

“Ah Xiong is here, let grandpa take a good look!”

His grandfather, Zhao Dashan, looked much better than before he was admitted to the hospital. He seemed to be in good spirits. When he saw his grandson, he immediately spoke.

Qin Xiong supported his grandfather as they walked in the garden of the sanatorium.

“Xiong Er, have you been studying well?”

“Pretty well.”

“That’s good, that’s good… Xiong, I have to go back. If I don’t, my piece of land will be occupied by someone else. By then, what will we have to rely on to eat? What will we rely on to drink?

“In the future, there will be plenty of places for you to use your money. You’ll need tuition and a decent living allowance to go to university. I’m thinking of saving up for you every month so that your classmates won’t look down on you!

“You still need to make friends after going to university…

“Xiong Er, let me tell you. This is about making friends. You don’t have to look good. You have to be down-to-earth and know how to live your life…

“Grandpa is useless, I can’t help you much…”

Qin Dashan nagged.

The old man imagined his grandson growing up, forming a family, and giving birth to children. He would lead an ordinary life, but he would lead a stable and stable life. He would no longer have to lead a wandering life like the two of them.

Qin Xiong listened seriously, and his eyes were red.

“Qin Yu...”

“There’s an exhibition at the Malang City Art Museum next week, and I want to go with you!”

The afterglow of the setting sun shone through the French-styled windows onto Qin Yu’s table and body.

Holding his chin with one hand, the other hand twirled the pen between his fingers. His eyes were calm as he thought about something.

At that moment, the phone screen lit up.

“Wow!”

Ye Ning, who was usually on good terms with him, subconsciously glanced at him.

When he saw the flash of a profile picture and the content of the message that was still floating before the screen, his eyes instantly widened. Then, he looked at Qin Yu and winked.

He lowered his voice and said excitedly.

“Qin Yu… I didn’t expect you to be so good at picking up girls in private. You look like a refined person, but you’re actually so good at picking up girls in private? She’s even throwing herself at you!”

The message popped up again:

“When the time comes, I must wear your favorite black lace stockings!”

Qin Yu rolled his eyes and brought the phone to him.

A reply was given.

“I’m not free.”

Ever since that day, Yang Yuchan had been crying in front of him in her black stockings and tight skirt, as well as her white shirt. This girl seemed to have developed a different attribute.

“Right.”

“That portrait just now looked like Yang Yuchan’s!”

Ye Ning seemed to have thought of something.. He took out his cell phone and opened the takeaway app. He found the account number that Yang Yuchan frequently ordered with and it was exactly the same!
